Less Is More? Or Not?
Is a temperature of -70° C less or more than -80° C? I ask because of something I read in a news story about the mountain range under the Antarctic ice sheets. The story reads, “Conditions are brutal; temperatures can go down to more than -80° C.”
Could they go down to -85°C? (Yes.) Then would not that be less hot than -80°C, and, therefore, should not that sentence read “temperatures can go down to less than -80°C”?

According to this site, this video is: “An Italian singer wrote this song with gibberish to sound like English. If you’ve ever wondered what other people think Americans sound like, this is it.”
I’ve often believed that people who use poor grammar have hearing problems.
